Performance clutch disc differences to OE: higher thermal capacity compared to organic friction material, higher transmittable torque compared to organic friction material, very dirt resistant, aggressive start performance, effortless exchange with OE clutches.
Typical applications include: race circuit (endurance race, clubsport, autocross), hill climbing (e.g. group N), rally, slalom, drift racing, 1/4 mile-race
A reinforced clutch cover has fundamental advantages against an OE clutch cover, such as a higher transmittable torque and higher resistance against thrust. It also allows for faster and sportier gearshifts. That makes it extremely useful for street tuning, endurance races, hill climbing (group N)
Both rigid and torsion damper clutch discs are available. Clutch discs with torsion springs function as a vibration damper between engine and gearbox. Due to reinforced clutch components the pedal force can increase and the modulation range can be reduced. Additional clutch and gear noises can appear.

Porsche High Performance Clutch Kits | Engineered for Precision, Power & Control
High performance clutch kits are designed for Porsche owners who demand enhanced torque handling, faster engagement, and superior durability under extreme driving conditions. Whether on the road, track, or during spirited driving, these clutch systems ensure maximum power transfer without sacrificing control or reliability.
At Design911, we supply precision-engineered, high performance clutch kits that meet or surpass original design benchmarks. Constructed using advanced friction materials such as ceramic, Kevlar, or carbon composite, and paired with reinforced pressure plates, these kits deliver improved clamping force, faster pedal response, and resistance to heat and fade.
Ideal for tuned or modified Porsches, each kit provides the perfect balance between drivability and performance, giving enthusiasts and professionals alike the confidence to push their cars to the limit.
What Do High Performance Clutch Kits Do?
A high performance clutch kit upgrades your Porsche’s ability to handle increased engine power and torque while maintaining smooth, consistent gear changes.
Core Functions:
- Transfers higher torque loads without slippage.
- Provides faster clutch engagement and release.
- Maintains friction stability under extreme temperatures.
- Enhances pedal response and shift precision.
- Extends clutch life in demanding driving conditions.
These kits are essential for performance-tuned or track-driven vehicles where standard clutches can struggle to keep up with increased engine output.
Why Do High Performance Clutch Kits Fail or Degrade?
Even the most durable clutch systems experience wear over time — especially under high load, heat, and aggressive driving conditions.
Common Causes of Failure Include:
- Excessive heat from repeated hard launches or track driving.
- Friction material degradation from high torque stress.
- Warped pressure plates or damaged flywheels.
- Contamination from oil or hydraulic fluid leaks.
- Improper break-in or installation issues.
As performance clutches operate under extreme conditions, regular inspection and timely replacement are crucial to maintaining consistent power delivery and drivability.
Why Replace or Upgrade to a High Performance Clutch Kit?
Upgrading to a high performance clutch kit ensures your Porsche can handle additional horsepower and torque produced by performance modifications — while maintaining responsiveness and reliability.
Key Benefits:
- Prevents clutch slippage under high torque loads.
- Provides improved bite and quicker engagement.
- Enhances heat resistance and fade protection.
- Delivers a more direct, responsive pedal feel.
- Extends durability under high-performance conditions.
- Available for various Porsche models and power levels.
Replacing an ageing or slipping clutch with a performance kit restores control and optimises power transfer — essential for tuned engines or competitive use.
Highlights
- High performance clutch kits for Porsche applications.
- Designed to handle increased torque and power.
- Features advanced friction materials (ceramic, Kevlar, or carbon).
- Reinforced pressure plates for higher clamping force.
- Ideal for modified, tuned, or motorsport Porsches.
- Delivers sharper engagement, improved feedback, and reliability.
